In the following, a plurality of embodiments of the present invention will be disclosed graphically. For the sake of clarity, many practical details will be described in the following description. It should be understood, however, that these practical details should not be used to limit the invention. That is, in some embodiments of the present invention, these practical details are unnecessary. In addition, in order to simplify the drawings, some conventional structures and components will be shown in the drawings in a simple and schematic manner. And, unless otherwise indicated, the same component symbols in different drawings may be regarded as corresponding components. These drawings are shown for the purpose of clearly expressing the connection relationship between the elements in these embodiments, and are not intended to show the actual dimensions of the elements.

Please refer to FIG. 1, which illustrates an aquatic organism display system 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the aquatic creature display system 100 includes a transparent layer 110, a transparent display module 120, a sensing module 130, and a control module 140. The transparent layer 110 has a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 opposite to the first surface 111. The transparent display module 120 is disposed on the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110. The sensing module 130 includes a distance sensor 131 and an image sensor 132 to detect the distance and image of an external object (such as aquatic organism f1), respectively. In this embodiment, the distance sensor 131 is configured to sense the distance d1 (shown in FIG. 3A) of the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110, and the image sensor 132 is configured to sense the image of the aquatic organism f1. The control module 140 is electrically connected to the transparent display module 120 and the sensing module 130 and configured to control the transparent display module 120 to display the brief content of the aquatic creature f1.

For example, the aquatic creature display system 100 can be used as a large fish tank installed in an aquarium. In such applications, one side of the transparent layer 110 is filled with fresh water or sea water for various aquatic organisms f1 to move in, and the other side is exposed to the air for visitors to stop and watch. In this embodiment, the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110 faces the air, and the second surface 112 faces the water body. The strength of the transparent layer 110 must be able to withstand the pressure exerted on the transparent layer 110 by the water body on the second surface 112 side. Persons skilled in the art may change the material and size of the transparent layer 110 according to the actual situation.

For example, the material of the transparent layer 110 may be made of glass, reinforced glass, plastic, acrylic, double tempered glass, or other composite materials. In terms of size, it is necessary to consider the pressure caused by the water body on the transparent layer 110 according to the density of the water body and the depth of the water body, and further design the thickness of the transparent layer 110 (the distance from the first surface 111 to the second surface 112). For example, in an embodiment where the height of the transparent layer 110 is 10 meters, the thickness of the transparent layer 110 may be designed to be 50 to 75 cm.

As shown in FIG. 1, a transparent display module 120 is disposed on the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110. In this embodiment, the transparent display module 120 is configured to display the brief content of the aquatic organism f1. The brief content may include species name, body type, habit, place of origin, picture, animation, or a combination thereof. When viewing the aquatic creature f1 in the aquatic creature display system 100, a visitor can refer to the introduction content displayed by the transparent display module 120 together. Compared with the traditional way of using pictures and signs to introduce, the aquatic display system 100 allows viewing The user can simultaneously watch the aquatic creature f1 and the corresponding introduction content without moving the field of vision in a wide range, which is beneficial to the viewing experience.

Specifically, the transparent display module 120 may be a transparent display using different display principles. For example, the transparent display module 120 may include a liquid crystal display panel or a self-emitting display panel, such as an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display panel or a micro light emitting diode, micro-LED) display panel.

In an embodiment, in the implementation manner in which the liquid crystal display panel is used as the transparent display module 120, the backlight module stacked with the liquid crystal display panel may be omitted to increase the transparency of the transparent display module 120. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, the aquatic creature display system 100 includes a light source module 150 as a light source of the transparent display module 120. Compared to the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110, the light source module 150 is provided. Close to the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110. In this embodiment, for example, an aquarium lamp can be used as the light source module 150 of the transparent display module 120 to simultaneously meet special lighting requirements such as brightness and color light.

The area where the transparent display module 120 is located can display the brief content of the aquatic organism f1. A person skilled in the art can set the size of the transparent display module 120 according to parameters such as the size of the transparent layer 110, the size of the aquatic organism f1, or the distribution density of the aquatic organism f1. In some embodiments, the size of the transparent display module 120 is substantially equal to the size of the transparent layer 110, that is, the transparent display module 120 is substantially completely covered on the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110. However, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the size of the transparent layer 110 is assumed to be very large. Considering the production cost, the transparent display module 120, for example, only partially covers the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110. Position and size of transparent display module 120 These are just examples, and can be adjusted as needed.

In some embodiments, the aquatic organism display system 100 includes only a single species of aquatic organisms f1, so the display content of the transparent display module 120 can be preset in the control module 140 without judging the type of aquatic organisms f1. In some embodiments, the aquatic organism display system 100 includes a plurality of types of aquatic organisms f1, such as different types of first aquatic organisms f11, second aquatic organisms f12, ..., and nth aquatic organisms f1n, etc., so the display is transparent The module 120 must change the display content as appropriate.

For example, in this embodiment, when the aquatic organism f1 enters a sensing space S adjacent to the transparent layer 110, the transparent display module 120 displays a corresponding picture. For example, when the aquatic organism f1 meets a preset judgment condition, the transparent display module 120 displays the brief content of the aquatic organism f1. If the aquatic creature f1 does not meet the preset judgment conditions, the transparent display module 120 will not display the brief content, and the screen will be transparent. When the aquatic organism f1 leaves the sensing space S of the aquatic organism display system 100 or the aquatic organism f1 gradually moves away from the transparent layer 110, the transparent display module 120 stops the introduction (that is, makes the screen transparent) and no longer displays the aquatic organism f1 Content of the introduction.

The concept of sensing space S is similar to what is called a region of interest (ROI) in general image processing programs. It can be freely defined according to practical needs. The sensing space S can be close to the second surface of the transparent layer 110. 112. For example, in this embodiment, the sensing space S is defined as a rectangular parallelepiped space having a depth D, a width W, and a height H, and a surface constructed by the width W and the height H may extend to the second of the transparent layer 110. Face 112. That is, the sensing space S may be connected to the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110.

The sensing space S may be located near the transparent display module 120 to allow the viewer to simultaneously watch the aquatic creature f1 and the corresponding introduction content without moving the field of vision in a wide range. The relative relationship between the two can be defined according to practical requirements. For example, you can refer to Figures 2A, 2B, and 2C, which respectively depict the aquatic creature f1 viewed from one side of the first surface 111 in different embodiments. The relative relationship between the time sensing space S and the transparent display module 120.

Please refer to FIG. 2A first, which illustrates a schematic diagram of the relative relationship between the sensing space S and the transparent display module 120 according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2A, the size of the transparent display module 120 in this embodiment is smaller than the size of the projection of the sensing space S on the transparent layer 110, and the transparent display module 120 is located in the sensing space S as a whole. Within the projection range on the transparent layer 110. In some embodiments, the size of the transparent display module 120 may be greater than or equal to the size of the projection of the sensing space S on the transparent layer 110. Therefore, the transparent display module 120 may also include the sensing space S in a transparent manner. Projection range on layer 110.

Please refer to FIG. 2B again, which illustrates a schematic diagram of the relative relationship between the sensing space S and the transparent display module 120 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. In such an embodiment, the projections of the transparent display module 120 and the sensing space S on the transparent layer 110 are staggered from each other without overlapping. In this embodiment, the transparent display module 120 is located below the projection range of the sensing space S on the transparent layer 110, but in other embodiments, it can also be located to the right of the projection area of the sensing space S on the transparent layer 110, To the left or above, this disclosure is not limited to the above.

Finally, please refer to FIG. 2C, which illustrates a schematic diagram of the relative relationship between the sensing space S and the transparent display module 120 according to another embodiment of the disclosure. In such an implementation aspect, the transparent display module 120 and the projection portion of the sensing space S on the transparent layer 110 overlap.

Now go back to Figure 1. As shown in FIG. 1, after the position of the sensing space S is defined in the aquatic creature display system 100, the aquatic creature display system 100 can monitor the inside of the sensing space S by the sensing module 130. The sensing module 130 may be disposed closer to one side of the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110, but is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the sensing module 130 may be disposed closer to the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110. Two sides 112, adjusted according to demand. When the sensing module 130 determines that aquatic organisms f1 appear in the sensing space S, it determines whether the aquatic organisms f1 meet the preset judgment conditions according to the received information. If the aquatic organism f1 meets the judgment condition, after the sensing module 130 passes the image sensing, the control module 140 will determine the type of the aquatic organism f1 and further control the transparent display module 120 to display the brief content.

That is, the sensing module 130 in this embodiment includes two functions: one is to determine whether the aquatic organism f1 appears in the sensing space S; the other is to collect the characteristics of the aquatic organism f1 for the control module 140 makes a judgment (determines whether it is necessary to control the transparent display module 120 to display a brief introduction, and judges the type of the water creature f1). The above functions can be implemented in various ways. Taking the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 as an example, the sensing module 130 includes a distance sensor 131 and an image sensor 132. The distance sensor 131 can detect a sensing space. The distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110 in S (shown in FIG. 3A); on the other hand, the image sensor 132 can obtain an image of the aquatic organism f1, and the control module 140 can perform image processing on the image A program to determine the type of the aquatic organism f1.

Reference is made to Figure 3A, which illustrates the water according to the embodiment of Figure 1 Side view of the mid-biological display system 100. In one embodiment, the distance sensor 131 projects a first light (not shown) to the aquatic organism f1 and receives a first light (not shown) reflected by the aquatic organism f1 to determine the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110. Distance. As shown in FIG. 3A, the distance sensor 131 in this embodiment may be a scanning infrared reflection distance sensor. The infrared reflection distance sensor may have a transmitting unit and a receiving unit (not shown in the figure). The transmitting unit emits infrared light and forms a reflection after irradiating an object (such as aquatic organism f1), and is received by the receiving unit, and then calculates The distance (such as the length L1) of the object (such as the aquatic organism f1) is obtained. With the above method, the sensing module 130 can determine whether the aquatic organism f1 appears in the defined sensing space S. The distance sensor 131 can detect the length L1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the aquatic organism f1, and the angle θ1 between the connection between the aquatic organism f1 and the distance sensor 131 and the horizontal plane HP (the scan of the distance sensor 131 The period corresponds to an angle range, and the angle θ1 can be derived from it.

Since the vertical distance d0 between the distance sensor 131 and the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110 can be measured in advance, the specific position of the aquatic organism f1 in the aquatic organism display system 100 can be calculated by combining the above information. For example, the vertical height h1 of the aquatic organism f1 and the horizontal plane HP is equal to L1 * sin θ 1, and the vertical distance d1 of the aquatic organism f1 from the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110 can be obtained from the following formula: d1 = (L1 * cos θ 1) -d0. Therefore, the distance sensor 131 may be configured to sense the distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110. Here, the vertical distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110 is, for example, The end point of the aquatic organism f1 closest to the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110 is taken as an example, but it is not limited thereto. It should be noted that the diagram here is only illustrated with a single beam, and in fact, multiple beams may be emitted from the same or different distance sensors 131 at the same time or at different times. In addition, the principle of the distance sensor 131 is just an example, and different types of distance sensors 131 may be selected according to actual requirements.

In other embodiments, the distance sensor 131 may be disposed on the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110 and above one side of the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110 (such as the position of the light source module 150). According to the installation position of the distance sensor 131, the relative position of the sensing space S may also be changed accordingly.

In the embodiment of FIG. 3A, since the position of the aquatic organism f1 in the three-dimensional coordinates can be clearly detected, the geometric shape of the sensing space S can be freely designed without being limited by hardware. For example, refer to FIG. 3B, which illustrates a side view of the aquatic organism display system 100 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3B, the sensing space S is defined as a gradual cuboid, and the bottom surface of the gradual cuboid is closer to the transparent layer 110, wherein the height H1 of the bottom surface of the gradual cuboid is greater than the height H2 of the top surface of the cuboid. In this way, as the aquatic organism f1 (not shown in FIG. 3B) progresses toward the transparent layer 110, the easier it is to enter the sensing space S, so that the transparent display module 120 displays the corresponding brief content. It should be understood that other geometric shapes of the sensing space S can also be defined according to practical requirements, and this disclosure is not limited to the above.

On the other hand, please refer to FIG. 1, the image sensor 132 included in the sensing module 130 may be a camera, a dot matrix light projector (dot projector), or other types of image capture devices. In the implementation using the camera as the image sensor 132, the black and white or color image of the aquatic organism f1 will be transmitted to the control module 140, and the species of the aquatic organism f1 will be determined by a preset image processing program. class. In one embodiment, the distance sensor 131 projects a first light (not shown) to the aquatic organism f1 and receives a first light (not shown) reflected by the aquatic organism f1 to determine the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110. Distance. Next, the image sensor 132 further projects a second light (not shown) on the aquatic organism f1 in a dot matrix manner, and receives a second light (not shown) reflected by the aquatic organism f1 to sense the aquatic organism. f1 image, this image is a stereo image. In this embodiment, for example, an implementation using a dot-matrix light-projecting element as the image sensor 132, the image sensor 132 will project a specific wavelength of light onto the aquatic organism f1 in a dot-matrix manner and receive it from The lattice light reflected on the surface of the aquatic creature f1 is then transmitted to the control module 140, and a three-dimensional image of the aquatic organism f1 is reconstructed through a special algorithm. The aquatic organism f1 is identified from the three-dimensional image using the control module 140 kind of.

As described above, after knowing the type of the aquatic organism f1, the control module 140 will control the transparent display module 120 to display the introduction content about the type of the aquatic organism f1. In this embodiment, the control module 140 can be externally connected (or built-in) to a preset database 160 (see FIG. 1). The preset database 160 stores profile data corresponding to various types of aquatic organisms f1 for the control module 140 to extract the profile data to the transparent display module 120.

In some embodiments, a pressure sensor 170 can also be disposed on the first surface 111 of the transparent layer 110 of the aquatic biological display system 100 (see FIG. 3B). The pressure sensor 170 is electrically connected to the control module 140 and the transparent display module 120. In this embodiment, the pressure sensor 170 may be located on one side of the transparent display module 120 opposite to the transparent layer 110. However, in other embodiments, the pressure sensor 170 may be located on the first surface 111 of the transparent layer and located on the transparent display module. Between the 120 and the transparent layer 110; or, in the process of making the transparent display module 120, the pressure sensor 170 is directly integrated in the transparent display module 120.

When the transparent display module 120 is stressed, the force value detected by the pressure sensor 170 is transmitted to the control module 140. If the force value is higher than a preset threshold, the control module 140 controls the transparent display module 120 to display the warning content. For example, when the transparent display module 120 is tapped, the transparent display module 120 may correspondingly display the words: "Please do not tap!". In this way, the transparent display module 120 can also be prevented from being damaged. Various special modules, such as a touch module, a voice module, etc. can also be installed in the aquatic creature display system 100 to achieve a user interactive experience. Persons skilled in the art may design the aquatic biological display system 100 according to practical requirements, and are not limited to the above examples.

In addition, in FIG. 1, the distance sensor 131 and the image sensor 132 are disposed adjacent to each other. However, in other embodiments, the distance sensor 131 and the image sensor 132 may be separated and disposed on the same side or opposite sides of the transparent layer 110. Those skilled in the art may design the sensing module 130 according to practical requirements, and is not limited to the form drawn in the first figure.

The relative relationships and functions of the components in the aquatic organism display system 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure have been described above with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3B. Next, another aspect of this disclosure will be introduced: aquatic organism display method 200. Please refer to FIG. 4A together, which illustrates a flowchart of an aquatic organism display method 200 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4A, the aquatic organism display method 200 includes steps S210, S220, S230, S240, and S250.

Please refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 3A, and Fig. 4A at the same time. The aquatic organism display method 200 starts from step S210: the distance sensor 131 judges aquatic organisms Whether the object f1 appears in the sensing space S. If the aquatic organism f1 does not appear in the sensing space S, step S210 is repeatedly performed until the aquatic organism f1 enters the sensing space S. In one embodiment, when step S210 is performed continuously, an interval time may be inserted between two steps S210. For example, each time step S210 is executed, it can stay for about 500 milliseconds, and then execute the next step S210.

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3A, and FIG. 4A, if the distance sensor 131 determines that an aquatic organism f1 appears in the sensing space S in step S210, step S220 is further performed: the distance sensor 131 is used to determine the water Whether the creature f1 meets the judgment conditions. By setting appropriate judgment conditions, the aquatic organism display method 200 can judge the state of the aquatic organism f1 in the sensing space S. For example, in this embodiment, the determination condition is: "whether the distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110 becomes smaller with time". If the aquatic organism f1 does not meet the above-mentioned judgment condition, it means that the aquatic organism f1 is not approaching the transparent layer 110. In this case, the process returns to step S210.

If in step S220, the distance sensor 131 determines that the distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110 becomes smaller with time, it means that the aquatic organism f1 is gradually approaching the transparent layer 110, and then step S230 is further performed: image The sensor 132 senses an image of the living creature f1. In addition, the image can be transmitted to the control module 140 by the image sensor 132.

After step S230 is performed, step S240 is further performed: the control module 140 determines the type of the aquatic organism f1 from the image received from the image sensor 132, and extracts the corresponding brief content from the preset database 160. The profile is then transmitted from the control module 140 to the transparent display module 120.

After step S240 is performed, step S250 is finally performed: use The control module 140 controls the transparent display module 120 on the transparent layer 110 to display the brief content. That is, the transparent display module 120 displays the brief content received from the control module 140. After the introduction is displayed for a period of time (for example, 3 seconds), it returns to step S210 and repeats each step in the aquatic organism display method 200. In this way, the aquatic organism display method 200 can continuously confirm whether the aquatic organism f1 is located in the sensing space S, and determine the swimming state of the aquatic organism f1, so as to present the introduction content of the aquatic organism f1 at an appropriate time.

One embodiment of the aquatic organism display method 200 is shown in FIG. 4A. In fact, each step in the flowchart is not immutable. Each step can be appropriately added, changed, or removed according to practical requirements. Limited to those shown in the illustration. For example, step S220 may actually set different determination conditions. In some embodiments, the determination condition may be set in step S220 as to whether the distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110 is less than a preset value. In this embodiment, for example, when the distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110 is smaller than a preset value, a viewer located outside the transparent layer 110 in the aquatic organism display system 100 can clearly observe the aquatic organism f1. Exterior. Alternatively, the determination condition may be set as: whether the distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110 does not change with time. In this case, only the stationary aquatic creature f1 will meet the judgment conditions.

Next, FIG. 4B is a flowchart of a method 300 for displaying aquatic organisms according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Specifically, the aquatic organism display method 300 includes steps S210, S230, S240, S250, S310, S320, and S330, where steps S210, S230, S240, and S250 are exactly the same as the steps described in FIG. 4A, which will be omitted below. Related instructions.

The difference between the aquatic organism display method 300 and the aquatic organism display method 200 is that the aquatic organism display method 300 further considers that there are multiple aquatic organisms f1 (such as the first aquatic organism f11 and the second aquatic organism f12) in the aquatic organism display system 100 at the same time. , ... and the nth aquatic organism f1n, etc.) into the sensing space S. In step S310 in FIG. 4A: the distance sensor 131 detects the number of aquatic organisms that meet the determination condition (for example, whether the distance d1 between the aquatic organism f1 and the transparent layer 110 decreases with time). That is, step S310 includes, in addition to step S220, "determining whether the aquatic organism f1 meets the judgment condition", and further determines the number of aquatic organisms that meet the judgment condition. If the number of aquatic organisms that meet the judgment conditions is zero, return to step S210; if the number of aquatic organisms that meet the judgment conditions is one, then continue to perform steps S230, S240, and S250 (same as the flow in Figure 4A); If it is determined that there are a plurality of aquatic organisms (two or more), step S320 is performed. In addition, in an embodiment, in step S310, in addition to the distance sensor 131, image sensing can also be used at the same time to facilitate the estimation of the number of living organisms f1 in the water. It should be noted that, compared with the image detected by the image sensor 132 in step S320, which can be used to determine the type of aquatic life f1, the image sensing in step S310 can be simpler, and can be used to judge the aquatic life. The number is sufficient (for example, the number of fish is estimated from the outline of the fish).

As shown in FIG. 4B, in step S320, the image sensor 132 will sense all images of the aquatic organisms f1 that meet the determination conditions, and then transmit the images to the control module 140.

Then step S330 is executed: the control module 140 determines the type of the aquatic organism f1 from the images, and selects the one with the highest priority according to the priority list. The first one is extracted from the preset database 160. Finally, the control module 140 transmits the brief content to the transparent display module 120 to present the brief content.

The above-mentioned priority list can be set in advance. For example, various types of aquatic creatures f1 can be sorted according to levels such as body shape, popularity, rarity, and the like. In this way, when a plurality of types of aquatic organisms f1 enter the sensing space S, the transparent display module 120 can present the brief content of all the aquatic organisms f1 that are more prominent (those with higher priority).

In some scenarios, the number of aquatic life colonies can also be considered as a priority. For example, if the number of aquatic organisms of the same species in the sensing space S is much greater than the number of other aquatic organisms, the priority of the aquatic organisms of this type will be higher than that of other aquatic organisms. In the above embodiment, when the clustered aquatic organism enters the sensing space S, the transparent display module 120 will preferentially display the brief content of the aquatic organism in the cluster. Those skilled in the art can set the priority order according to the aquatic species, characteristics, and other conditions configured inside the aquatic organism display system 100, and the disclosure is not limited to the above.

The execution details of the steps in the aquatic organism display method 200 and the aquatic organism display method 300 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure have been described above with reference to FIGS. 4A and 4B. In general, in addition to the above disclosures, they can be applied to aquariums for viewing and display purposes, as well as a variety of applications. For example, the aquatic organism display method 200 can also be applied in an aquarium store. The introduction can further display the selling price of various aquatic organisms. Or it can be applied to biological research, so that researchers can quickly grasp the data of experimental targets.

Taking the application of biological experiments as an example, researchers can use Different identification tags are embedded in multiple aquatic organisms f1 for tracking. In one embodiment, the identification label may have a special color, size, outline, barcode, or even fluorescent light, which is convenient for human eyes or instruments to recognize. In this case, the sensing module 130 can also facilitate detection. For example, in the implementation of FIG. 1, if an identification tag is embedded in the aquatic organism f1 and the sensing module 130 in FIG. 1 is replaced with a tag sensor (such as an image sensor), then The tag sensor can directly identify the type of the aquatic organism f1 by identifying the color, size, outline, barcode, or fluorescence of the tag. However, identification tags are not limited to tracking applications for biological experiments, but can also be applied to aquariums for ornamental display purposes.

In some embodiments, the identification tag is a radio frequency identification tag that can actively transmit signals. In such a case, a sensor that detects radio frequency in this frequency band can be used as a tag sensor. For example, tags and identifiers in radio frequency identification (RFID) can be used as the identification tags and tag sensors in this embodiment.

The label sensor can determine whether an identification label appears in the sensing space S near the second surface 112 of the transparent layer 110; if it is, then use the label sensor to determine whether the identification label meets the determination condition; if the label sensor determines the identification label If the judgment conditions are met, the transparent display module 120 can be controlled to display the corresponding brief content by the control module 140, wherein the control module 140 is electrically connected to the tag sensor and the transparent display module 120. Since the tag itself can carry the corresponding information of the aquatic organism f1, the sensing module 130 only needs to transmit the detected identification tag information to the control module 140, and the control module 140 then retrieves the information from the preset database 160. The corresponding brief content is extracted, and the brief content is displayed through the transparent display module 120. In the embodiment provided with the identification tag, The identification tag directly obtains the respective information of the aquatic organism f1, so the image processing program can be omitted.

In addition, in an embodiment, the tag sensor is used to determine whether the identification tag meets the determination condition. For example, to read the identification tag in the sensing space, it can be determined from the reading position whether it meets the determination condition (such as the identification tag and the transparent layer). Whether the distance is less than the preset value). In another embodiment, a tag sensor is used to determine whether the identification tag meets the determination condition. For example, the identification tag is read in the sensing space, and the same identification tag is read at a preset time interval. Determine whether it meets the conditions (such as whether the distance between the identification label and the transparent layer decreases with time). If the identification tag does not appear in the sensing space S or the identification tag does not meet the determination condition, the label sensor is used again to determine whether an identification tag appears in the sensing space S.

Specifically, reference may be made to FIG. 5, which illustrates a flowchart of an aquatic organism display method 400 according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure. The aquatic organism display method 400 includes steps S410, S420, S430, S440, and S450. It is similar to the aquatic organism display method 300 shown in FIG. 4B, the main difference is that in this embodiment, an identification tag is additionally provided on the body surface or inside of the aquatic organism f1, and the sensing module 130 is a tag sensor, and is omitted. Steps S320 and S230 shown in FIG. 4B. In one embodiment, the tag sensor judges the number of aquatic organisms f1 appearing in the sensing space S and meets the judgment conditions; if the number is greater than one, the transparent display module 120 displays that the aquatic organisms f1 have The corresponding brief content of one of the highest priority. In one embodiment, the priority list is sorted according to the size or number of the same aquatic creatures. For the corresponding steps, please refer to the descriptions in the previous article, which will not be repeated here.
